Affirmative Action and Strict Scrutiny

This week’s episode covers Fisher v. University of Texas, which held that UOT’s affirmative action program was in compliance with the Constitution and the Equal Protection clause. Brett and Nazim vet out how and why this program was able to pass the seemingly high barrier of strict scrutiny and what that says for future programs implementing similar procedures. Law starts (08:21), following this episode’s rendition of “This Week in Ravioli Talk”.
